A hardworking and dedicated man, he endured a hectic schedule, balancing school while also working as a model to make ends meet. At the end, he was not happy with the situation and so, he left school, travelled abroad and established himself as a male model.

Known for his mega-tattoos and piercing (although he hasn’t always had that look), this 6-foot-one Brazilian hunk may not be everyone's cup of tea, but he's managed to create a huge porfolio with work for "Terra The Boy", "Abercrombie & Fitch", "Carmin", "Havainas", "Penguim", "Yatchsman", "Dazed & Confused" and "Numero Hommes" among many others.

Now living in Paris (as of 2011), his goals are to be able to help his family and to find the real balance in life: body, mind and spirit. Said Verdelho, "The best thing about modeling is to be able to travel around the world and you can learn by yourself the culture, the language of such unique lifestyles."

As for his hobbies, Verdelho is into extreme sports, specially skating and skateboarding. He spends most of his time with his family, girlfriend and buddies. He likes to go to unusual places, eat healthy, and go to the beach.... (more)(less)
